PERSONNEL COMPLAINT, LA. NO. 86-600
Page 22 6
Tyndall further stated that he never heard Pellegrino state in
reference to Ramirez, "I got to choke me out a Mexican," or
anything similar to that.
Tyndall stated that he denied seeing the sentence, "Howard
Schreiber is whose father?" written on the blackboard in the
O.I.S. Section office. He denied that he wrote the comment on
the blackboard and was not aware of anyone else who might have
done so. Nor did he recall overhearing Pellegrino state "Chico
wants to be a Mexican but he is a Jew." He likewise did not hear
Lieutenant Hall state in response to any writing on a blackboard,
"Well it looks like someone has dug up dirt on a D-III
candidate."
Tyndall stated he could not recall ever being present and
observing a conversation between Lieutenants Hall and Massey when
they were reviewing a captain's promotional list. He denied ever
hearing Hall state to Ramirez, "God damn it Chico, you are
interrupting us," or at any other time hearing Lieutenant Hall
direct profanity toward Ramirez or speak to him in a degrading or
derogatory manner.
Tyndall stated that neither in December of 1988 nor at any other
time when he might have been present did he hear Montgomery tell
anyone, including Fiderio, to, "Just ignore the little Mexican.
Don't pay attention to him," in reference to Ramirez.
He did not recall ever hearing Montgomery ask Michelena, "How can
a preppy Mexican like you have a dumb ghetto Mexican for a
relative?" or Montgomery stating to Michelena, "Rios lives in a
dump like typical Mexicans." He (Tyndall) knew who Rios was. He
believed he was the brother of Michelena's sister's husband and
had been involved in an O.I.S.
Tyndall stated that he never heard Tortorici refer to Ramirez or
anyone else as a, "greaser," or, "greaseball." He specifically
denied overhearing Tortorici discuss a 1989 weekend duty schedule
with Ramirez and denied ever hearing Tortorici state to Ramirez,
"Hey greaser, there is only one good thing about the schedule. I
don't have any weekends assigned with you. That's good because I
don't have to work with you, greaseball."
Tyndall stated he never heard Pellegrino refer to Laura Diethrich
as a, "dumb Mexican broad", or state that if it was up to him he
would, "fire the bitch."
Tyndall stated that he did not recall any incident involving
Ramirez, Greg Hall, Pellegrino, and Lieutenant Hall and a measure
meter.
